Agriculture and Natural Resources

The thrust of the Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) Program is to improve farm income through increased production of alternative agricultural enterprises and reduced cost, and to enhance profitability of traditional agricultural enterprises by minimizing risk. The AGNR Program provides cutting-edge research and demonstrations of recommended practices at the Research/Extension Farm and Technology Transfer Center in Mound Bayou, the Fresh Vegetable Processing Plant in Marks, the Incubator Farm in Preston, and the Model Farm on the campus of Alcorn State University.
